My Vauxhall Zafira cuts out?

My Vauxhall Zafira cuts out without warning some distance into a journey. A red triangle warning light comes on with a car inside - it has zig-zag lines coming from it. The car starts again without difficulty after a short while but not immediately,

Vauxhall Zafira Vehicles, Cars Warning Triangle Light

Same thing was happening with my wifes Zafira.
After much being stuffed around by mechanics at great cost, with no results, found on anouther forum, that the air inlet butterfly valve can stick on this model of engine and is understood to be a common fault that can trip out the computer.
A can of carby cleaner later and car is running fine.

Is you Zafira a 2.2 direct injection petrol engine? If so you will need a new fuel pressure regulator. See the BBC Watchdog report from 12/1/09 for further information.
